Resolved: I Cannot Join a Multiplayer Game.

When I try to join a server, the game just ends. My computer doesn't lock up, the game just completely ends. I did verify game files.

We need some more info.
When u say "the game just ends" do u mean the whole game crashes and u are back to your desktop or the Multiplayer server u were trying to connect to just boots u back to the Multiplayer lobby ?
Can u play any of the single player missions/qwik missions ?
Please provide us with your PC specs like what u see in my sig.

Hello Craterman

What version of the game are you playing?

IL-2 STURMOVIK CLIFF OF DOVER, or IL-2 STURMOVIK CLIFFS OF DOVER - BLITZ?

Is your game up to date and verified through STEAM?

Okay, the game just crashes back to desktop. I have joined online games before many times and recent, this is a new development. And I am running Blitz (current) through steam. And the game runs fine offline still.

So have u installed any other software on your pc at about the same time these crashes started ? Eg virtual machine software?
Do u play any other online games and can u join them ?
U could also try a DNS flush (just google DNS flush for Windows 10). It won’t hurt anything anyway.

I would also whitelist launcher64.exe in the anti-virus software if you are running one...
Your A/V may not like it if an application tries to access an external IP.

Also the log files in Eventviewer may give you a hint as to what is causing the crash provided you know how to interpret those. I don’t...

I cleared the cache again and now I can join. Don't know for sure if that really fixed it or something else did it, as I did have a windows update since trying it last. Thanks for the help and suggestions guy! Greatly appreciate it!
